📅 Watch live: London FIMI Forum - 14 October | Organised by the European Union Delegation to the United Kingdom Our Senior Research Fellow Joana de Deus Pereira Ph.D will discuss how to build broader partnerships for collective responses against foreign information manipulation and interference (FIMI), starting at 12:00 CET. Joana will be joined by Justin Arenstein, Chief Executive, Code For Africa (CfA), African network for investigative journalism and Tom Southern, Director of Special Projects, Centre for Information Resilience, UK. #FIMI #Resilience
Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference (FIMI) has become an increasingly serious challenge for today’s democratic societies, especially as over one and a half billion people have voted or are preparing to vote in 2024. This highlights the urgent need to protect democracy. The fourth edition of the London FIMI Forum, organised by the EU Delegation to the UK, directly addresses these pressing concerns. With such a significant portion of the global population participating in elections, safeguarding democratic processes from foreign interference has never been more critical. The goal of the London FIMI Forum is to foster dialogue and coordination between key EU partners, including the UK. It will delve into practical tools to the address threat FIMI poses to the democratic process and will examine how new partnerships can generate collective responses to its evolving nature. By bringing together policymakers, researchers, experts from different associations, and other like-minded partners, the forum aims to strengthen cognitive security and assess the potential for global cooperation against foreign interference. #LondonFIMIforum
